#3 - Robotnik's Pyramid Scheme

Season 1 - Episode 39 - Aired 10/28/1993

Robotnik and his idiots escape from the lions and head for ancient Mobegypt, when they can find the Emerald of Immortality. Robotnik, of course, knows that Sonic will try to stop him. But Robotnik has apparently got a surprise plan here - he tries to make sure Sonic is never born by preventing the Blue Blur's Egyptian ancestors, Masonic and Penelope, from meeting. Sonic and Tails show up, this time having used Caninestein's ""Time-Warp Boogie Board"" (the boots were hurting Sonic's feet), and manage to save Masonic from being kept under wraps. The kicker, though, is that Sonic winds up preventing his ancestors' meeting and is erased from existence. Instead of deciding to change the show's name to The Adventures of Tails the Kitsune, Tails fixes the paradox and gets Masonic and Penelope to meet, and Sonic reappears as if on cue. Unfortunately, Robotnik has now made himself pharaoh and forces Sonic, Tails, Masonic, and Penelope to build pyramids for him. When Robotnik figures that the Emer
